NEUTRALIZING ANTIBODY AND IMMUNOMODULATORY ENHANCING COMPOSITIONS

摘要

A composition and method for immune modulation of pathogenic infections is disclosed. More particularly, a composition and method for enhancing a mammal's ability to respond to, e.g., immunosuppressive pathogens, is disclosed in which a target antigen is mixed with a heterologous antisera specific or cross-reactive to that antigen to produce an inoculant. The inoculant is used to cause natural and specific immune responses to the heterologous antibodies to enhance complement fixation and specific humoral and cellular responses.
